We are making great strides in the continued development of our athletics program and have been fortunate to have highly qualified faces to our coaching staff. For example just to mention one. Our Football Coach Mr. Taibowei Depreye (aka “Computer” in his playing days) is a seasoned professional that had stints playing professionally in Europe for popular English Premier League team West Ham FC and was also part of their Youth Development Program when his playing career was over.

I look forward to watching as our coaches flourish in their efforts to provide the best in a Federal University athletics environment. FUO coaching staff is committed to the development of an athletics program entwined with the mission of the University and our athletic philosophy clearly supports this and is outlined below:

The F U O Sports and Recreation Unit program is committed to the development of the "student-athlete first", focusing on life skill development within a team environment, ultimately providing foundation for a winning program. Aligned with the mission of the University.

The athletic program aims to teach each Student-athlete leadership, commitment, discipline, accountability, loyalty and teamwork while building a foundation based on personal values and integrity.

Each student-athlete participating in the program will experience opportunity to develop the total person as well as a sense of dignity and self worth. In the end, we desire for each of our student-athletes to learn, grow, compete, and have fun!

Federal University Otuoke Student-Athletes will be led to push their limits of personal development in an effort to teach them what it takes to be a winner both on and off the field. Our goal is for each student-athlete to leave our program having a clear understanding of what it takes to succeed in life and a clear understanding of what it means to become a contributing member within our society.
